Put a progressBar on ActionBar

by

NOTE: The functionality below is now deprecated in the Support Library.

You need to call 

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS)

in your onCreate() before setting the activity’s layout:

e.g.

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_INDETERMINATE_PROGRESS);
    ... // set layout etc

If you are using the support library replace requestWindowFeature with supportRequestWindowFeature

And then call 

setProgressBarIndeterminateVisibility(true);

on your Activity whenever you want to show the progress spinner.
